Synthetic proximity-zone spectra plus a simple peak-finding algorithm can distinguish line-of-sight separations of quasar pairs at the 0.2–0.5 pMpc level for sky separations of 10–100 pkpc and still separate close versus distant pairs at 1 pMpc sky separation.

The quasar J1512+4422 at z~6.2 lies on the local M_BH-σ_* relation and powers an outflow whose mass and energy loss rates exceed the host's star formation rate, indicating negative feedback.
Lenient heavy-seed models in BRAHMA simulations produce black hole merger rates above 100 per year and near-unity occupation fractions down to low-mass galaxies, while strict models yield only about 1 merger per year and occupation fractions below 10 percent for galaxies under 10^8 solar masses.

The Quasar Proximity Effect as an Alternative Probe of Quasar Pair Distances

Supermassive Black Hole Assembly from Heavy Seeds with Dynamical Friction in the BRAHMA Simulations: Implications for JWST, LISA, and the Local Universe
Lenient heavy-seed models in BRAHMA simulations produce black hole merger rates above 100 per year and near-unity occupation fractions down to low-mass galaxies, while strict models yield only about 1 merger per year and occupation fractions below 10 percent for galaxies under 10^8 solar masses.
